    Series title Lecture notes on mathematical modelling in the life sciences
    Abstract This monograph introduces some current developments in the modelling of the spread of tick-borne diseases. Effective modelling requires the integration of multiple frameworks. Here, particular attention is given to the previously neglected issues of tick developmental and behavioral diapause, tick-borne pathogen co-feeding transmission, and their interactions. An introduction to the required basics of structured population formulations and delay differential equations is given, and topics for future study are suggested. The described techniques will also be useful in the study of other vector-borne diseases. The ultimate aim of this project is to develop a general qualitative framework leading to tick-borne disease risk predictive tools and a decision support system. The target audience is mathematical biologists interested in modelling tick population dynamics and tick-borne disease transmission, and developing computational tools for disease prevention and control.

    Abstract Because privacy-preserving data aggregation protocols provide data privacy and data compression, they have been extensively studied in smart grids. However, most of the existing data aggregation protocols are based on honest-but-curious aggregators, or adopt computationally intensive asymmetric homomorphic encryption, making these protocols only provably secure in weak security models, or resulting in high computational complexity for terminal users. To address the aforementioned issues, in this work, we propose a novel lightweight privacy-preserving data aggregation scheme against malicious aggregators based on our symmetric homomorphic encryption. The proposed scheme can reduce the computational cost of smart meters while also resisting tampering and deletion attacks from malicious aggregators. One of the highlights of the proposed scheme is its ability to withstand deletion attacks from malicious aggregators, which makes it unnecessary for the malicious aggregator to aggregate the readings of all smart meters instead of only a part of them. Therefore, our scheme is more secure than other schemes. It is the first privacy-preserving data aggregation scheme based on a stronger security model without multiple rounds of interaction. Finally, the detailed security analysis shows that the proposed scheme satisfies desirable security properties. Moreover, experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is superior to the other four schemes in terms of computational complexity and communication overhead.

    Abstract Objective: The purpose of this scoping review was to map and identify studies describing the current state of research and teaching methods and evaluation systems for nurse anesthetists within China.
    Design: A wide-ranging search of multiple databases and gray literature was performed according to JBI criteria, employing predefined selection criteria and following PRISMA guidelines.
    Methods: This scoping review included studies published between 1988 and 2021 that explored the current state of clinical training and teaching methods for nurse anesthetists nationally and internationally. These articles were reviewed by four reviewers and content analysis was performed.
    Results: Fifty-two articles were included in the review. The results suggest that both simulation teaching in nursing education and Kolb's experiential learning cycle theory improve nursing staff teamwork, develop critical thinking skills, and improve core nursing competencies.
    Conclusions: High-fidelity simulation teaching based on Kolb's experiential learning cycle theory may be an effective teaching method to develop and improve the competence of nurse anesthesia monitors.

    Abstract We propose a coupled system of delay-algebraic equations to describe tick attaching and host grooming behaviors in the tick-host interface, and use the model to understand how this tick-host interaction impacts the tick population dynamics. We consider two critical state variables, the loads of feeding ticks on host and the engorged ticks on the ground for ticks in a particular development stage (nymphal stage) and show that the model as a coupled system of delay differential equation and an algebraic (integral) equation may have rich structures of equilibrium states, leading to multi-stability. We perform asymptotic analyses and use the implicit function theorem to characterize the stability of these equilibrium states, and show that bi-stability and quadri-stability occur naturally in several combinations of tick attaching and host grooming behaviours. In particular, we show that in the case when host grooming is triggered by the tick biting, the system will have three stable equilibrium states including the extinction state, and two unstable equilibrium states. In addition, the two nontrivial stable equilibrium states correspond to a low attachment rate and a large number of feeding ticks, and a high attachment rate and a small number of feeding ticks, respectively.

    Abstract Driving style has been proposed to be a critical factor in automated driving. However, the role of driving style in the process of taking over during automated driving needs further investigation. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of driving style on takeover performance under the influence of warning system factors. In addition, this study also explored whether the impact of driving style on reaction time varies over time and the role of driving style on a comprehensive takeover quality indicator. Two driving simulation experiments with different takeover request (TOR) designs were conducted. In experiment 1, content warning information was provided in the TOR with different warning stage designs; in experiment 2, countdown warning information was provided in the TOR with different warning stage designs. Sixty-four participants (32 for experiment 1 and 32 for experiment 2) were classified into two groups based on their driving style (i.e., aggressive, or defensive) using the Chinese version of the Multidimensional Driving Style Inventory (the brief MDSI-C). The results suggested that drivers' driving style had significant effects on takeover performance, but the effects were influenced by warning system designs. Specifically, defensive participants performed better takeover performance, i.e., shorter reaction time and cautious vehicle control behaviors, than aggressive participants in most warning conditions. The content and countdown warning information and warning stage design affected the roles of driving style on takeover performance: 1) compared to the one-stage warning design, the two-stage warning design significantly shortened the reaction time of the participants with different driving styles, 2) compared to the countdown warning information design, the design of content warning information can shorten the reaction time of aggressive participants and lengthen the reaction time of defensive participants in the two-stage warning conditions, and 3) compared to the content warning information design, countdown warning information can improve the safe takeover performance of defensive participants. This study provides a better understanding of the role of driving style on takeover performance, and driving style should be considered when designing warning systems for autonomous vehicles.
